PRESIDENTIAL VETO.

The Bill for Distribution of Seeds to
Drought-stricken Counties OF Texas.

Of agriculture to make special distribu-
tion Of seeds in the ught-stricken coun-
ties Of Texas, the President said

tion in the Constitution, and / do not
believe that the power and duty of the gen.
eral government ought to be extended
to. the relief of individual suffering
which is in no manner properly re.
lated to the public service or benefit. A pre-
yalent tendency to disregard the limited mis-
sion OF this power and duty should, think. be
should be constantly enforced that, though the
people support the government, the govern

FederDl aid In such cases encourages the ex-
pectation OF paternal care on the part of the

National Republican., 1887-02-17

We print the full text Of Senator STAN
fora's cooperation bill and the remarks of
the senator explanatory thereof.
A careful study of both will richly repay
every friend Of labor.
1t is the most important proposition yet
made to place labor and its product--capi-
talon equal terms in business association.
1t permits two or more persons with capt.
tai in the shape Of money and other prop
erty and labor, or labor alone, skilled or
common, to be represented and associated
in the District of Columbia upon a CO.
operative basis.
Every contingency OF business enter
prise is provided for in the different Sec
tions Of the bill, which is the result Of
most thoughtful consideration by a mind Of
the largest business experience and applied
by Judgment that is regarded as stand
ard authority by the business men of this
country.
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN earnestly
requests the labor organizations of work
ingmen and working women to give this
matter their best thought. Congress can
make the experiment In the District of Co.
lumbia, where there are 10000 more women
than men, which will give them an oppor-
tunity to combine their labor in legal
form, manufacture goods and establish q
trademark, which could be maintained
even when parties die or wish to retire, by
the substitution of other persons.
Parties associated could stipulate to
furnish q given number Of days work in O
month, the value of which could be fixed
and their interest would be in just proper
rion to the labor of others.
This cooperative plan makes demand
for labor and prevents the monopoly oi
profits by capital in business associations.
